                     Application-aware Targeted LDP
                   draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp-01


Abstract

   Recent targeted LDP applications such as remote loop-free alternates
   and BGP auto discovered pseudowire may automatically establish a tLDP
   session to any LSR in a network. The initiating LSR has information
   about the targeted applications to administratively control
   initiation of the session. However the responding LSR has no such
   information to control acceptance of this session. This document
   defines a mechanism to advertise and negotiate Targeted Applications
   Capability during LDP session initialization. As the responding LSR
   becomes aware of targeted applications, it may establish a limited
   number of tLDP sessions for certain applications. In addition, each
   targeted application is mapped to LDP Forwarding Equivalence Class
   (FEC) Elements to advertise only necessary LDP FEC-label bindings
   over the session.

INTERNET DRAFT     <draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp>  September 19, 2014


1  Introduction

   LDP can use the extended discovery mechanism to establish a tLDP
   adjacency and subsequent session as described in [RFC5036]. An LSR
   initiates extended discovery by sending a tLDP Hello to a specific
   address. The remote LSR decides either to accept or ignore a tLDP
   Hello based on local configuration only. For an application such as
   FEC 128 pseudowire, the remote LSR is configured with the source LSR
   address, so the remote LSR can use that information to accept or
   ignore a given tLDP Hello.

   Applications such as Remote LFA and BGP auto discovered pseudowire
   automatically initiate asymmetric extended discovery to any LSR in a
   network based on local state only. With these applications, the
   remote LSR is not explicitly configured with the source LSR address.
   so the remote LSR either responds to all LDP requests or ignores all
   LDP requests.

   In addition, since the session is initiated and established after
   adjacency formation, the responding LSR has no targeted applications
   information to choose the targeted application it is configured to
   support. Also, the initiating LSR may employ a limit per application
   on locally initiated automatic tLDP sessions, however the responding
   LSR has no such information to employ a similar limit on the incoming
   tLDP sessions. Further, the responding LSR does not know whether the
   source LSR is establishing a tLDP session for a configured or an
   automatic application or both.

   This document proposes and describes a solution to advertise Targeted
   Application Capability, consisting of a targeted application list,
   during initialization of a tLDP session. It also defines a mechanism
   to enable a new application and disable an old application after
   session establishment. This capability advertisement provides the
   responding LSR with the necessary information to control the
   acceptance of tLDP sessions per application. For instance, an LSR may
   accept all BGP auto discovered tLDP sessions but may only accept
   limited number of Remote LFA tLDP sessions.

   Also, targeted LDP application is mapped to LDP FEC element type to
   advertise specific application FECs only, avoiding the advertisement
   of other unnecessary FECs over a tLDP session.

1.1  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

2. Targeted Application Capability

   An LSR MAY advertise that it is capable to negotiate a targeted LDP
   application list over a tLDP session by using the Capability
   Advertisement as defined in [RFC5561].

   A new optional capability TLV is defined, 'Targeted Application
   Capability (TAC)'. Its encoding is as follows:

      0                   1                   2                   3
      0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
     |U|F| Targeted App. Cap.(IANA)|             Length              |
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
     |S|  Reserved   |                                               |
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+                                               |
     |                                                               |
     ~                 Targeted App. Cap. data                       ~
     |                                                               |
     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

     As described in [RFC5561]
     U: set to 1. Ignore, if not known.
     F: Set to 0. Do not forward.
     S: MUST be set to 1 or 0 to advertise or withdraw the Targeted
        Application Capability TLV respectively.

     Targeted Application Capability data:
       A Targeted Applications Capability data consists of none, one
       or more 16 bit Targeted Application Elements. Its encoding is
       as follows:

       Targeted Application Element(TAE)

        0                   1
        0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5
       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
       | Targ. Appl. Id|E|  Reserved   |
       +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

       Targeted Application Identifier (TA-Id):

         0x01: LDPv4 Tunneling
         0x02: LDPv6 Tunneling
         0x03: mLDP Tunneling
         0x04: LDPv4 Remote LFA
         0x05: LDPv6 Remote LFA
         0x06: LDP FEC 128 Pseudowire

         0x07: LDP FEC 129 Pseudowire
         0x08: LDPv4 Session Protection
         0x09: LDPv6 Session Protection
         0x0A: LDP ICCP
         0x0B: LDP P2MP PW
         0x0C: mLDP node protection


       E-bit: The enable bit indicates whether the sender is
         advertising or withdrawing the Targeted Application.
         The E-bit value is used as follows:

           1 - The TAE is advertising the targeted application.
           0 - The TAE is withdrawing the targeted application.

     The length of TAC depends on the number of TAEs. For instance,
     if two TAEs are added, the length is set to 5. If both the
     peers advertise TAC, an LSR decides to establish or close a
     tLDP session based on the negotiated targeted application list.

     For instance, suppose a initiating LSR advertises A, B and
     C as TA-Ids. Further, suppose the responding LSR advertises C, D
     and E as TA-Ids. Than the negotiated TA-Id, as per both the LSRs
     is C. In the second instance, suppose a initiating LSR advertises
     A, B and C as TA-Ids and the responding LSR, which acts as a
     passive LSR, advertises all the applications - A, B, C, D and E
     that it supports over this session. Than the negotiated targeted
     application as per both the LSRs are A, B and C. In the last
     instance, suppose the initiating LSR advertises A, B and C as a
     TA-Ids and the responding LSR advertises D and E as TA-Ids, than
     the negotiated targeted applciations as per both the LSRs is none.
     The Responding LSR sends 'Session Rejected/Targeted Application
     Capability Mis-Match' Notification message to the initiating LSR
     and may close the session.


3. Targeted Application Capability Procedures

   At tLDP session establishment time, a LSR MAY include a new
   capability TLV, Targeted Application Capability (TAC) TLV, as an
   optional TLV in the LDP Initialization message. The TAC TLV's
   Capability data MUST consists of none, one or more Targeted
   Application Element(TAE) each pertaining to a unique Targeted
   Application Identifier(TA-Id) that a LSR supports over the session.
   If the receiver LSR receives the same TA-Id in more than one TAE, it
   MUST process the first element and ignore the duplicate elements. If
   the receiver LSR receives an unknown TA-Id in a TAE, it MUST silently
   ignore such a TAE and continue processing the rest of the TLV.

INTERNET DRAFT     <draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp>  September 19, 2014


   If the receiver LSR does not receive the TAC in the Initialization
   message or it does not understand the TAC TLV, the TAC negotiation
   MUST be considered unsuccessful and the session establishment MUST
   proceed as per [RFC5036]. On the receipt of a valid TAC TLV, an LSR
   MUST generate its own TAC TLV with TAEs consisting of unique TA-Ids
   that it supports over the tLDP session. If there is at least one TAE
   common between the TAC TLV it has received and its own, the session
   MUST proceed to establishment as per [RFC5036]. If not, A LSR MUST
   send a 'Session Rejected/Targeted Application Capability Mis-Match'
   Notification message to the peer and close the session. The
   initiating LSR playing the passive role in LDP session establishment
   MAY tear down the corresponding tLDP adjacency.

   When the responding LSR playing the active role in LDP session
   establishment receives a 'Session Rejected/Targeted Application
   Capability Mis-Match' Notification message, it MUST set its session
   setup retry interval to a maximum value, as 0xffff. The session MAY
   stay in non-operational state. When it detects a change in the
   initiating LSR configuration or local LSR configuration pertaining to
   TAC TLV, it MUST clear the session setup back off delay associated
   with the session to re-attempt the session establishment. A LSR
   detects configuration change on the other LSR with the receipt of
   tLDP Hello message that has a higher configuration sequence number
   than the earlier tLDP Hello message.

   When the initiating LSR playing the active role in LDP session
   establishment receives a 'Session Rejected/Targeted Application
   Capability Mis-Match' Notification message, either it MUST set its
   session setup retry interval to a maximum value, as 0xffff or it MUST
   teard down the corresponding tLDP adjacency with the session. This
   also leads to destruction of the session.

   If it sets the session setup retry interval to maximum, the session
   MAY stay in a non-operational state. When this LSR detects a change
   in the responding LSR configuration or its own configuration
   pertaining to TAC TLV, it MUST clear the session setup back off delay
   associated with the session to re-attempt the session establishment.

   If it decides to tear down the associated tLDP adjacency, the session
   is destroyed on the initiating as well as the responding LSR. The
   initiating LSR MAY take appropriate actions if it is unable to bring
   up the tLDP session. For instance, if an automatic session intended
   to support the Remote LFA application is rejected by the responding
   LSR, the initiating LSR may inform the IGP to calculate another PQ
   node [I-D.draft-ietf-rtgwg-remote-lfa] for the route or set of
   routes. More specific actions are a local matter and outside the
   scope of this document.

INTERNET DRAFT     <draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp>  September 19, 2014


   After a tLDP session has been established with TAC capability, the
   initiating and responding LSR MUST distribute FEC-label bindings for
   the negotiated applications only. For instance, if the tLDP session
   is established for BGP auto discovered pseudowire, only FEC 129 label
   bindings MUST be distributed over the session. Similarly, a LSR
   operating in downstream on demand mode MUST request FEC-label
   bindings for the negotiated applications only.

   If the Targeted Application Capability and Dynamic Capability, as
   described in RFC 5561, are negotiated during session initialization,
   TAC MAY be re-negotiated after session establishment by sending an
   updated TAC TLV in LDP Capability message. The updated TLV MUST
   consist of one or more TAEs with E-bit set or E-bit off to advertise
   or withdraw the new and old application respectively. This may lead
   to advertisements or withdrawals of certain types of FEC-Label
   bindings over the session or tear down of the tLDP adjacency and
   subsequently the session.

   The Targeted Application Capability is advertised on tLDP session
   only. If the tLDP session changes to link session, a LSR should
   withdraw it with S bit set to 0, which indicates wildcard withdral of
   all TAE elements. Similarly, if the link session changes to tLDP, a
   LSR should advertise it via the Capability message. If the capability
   negotiation fails, this may lead to destruction of the tLDP session.

   Also, currently the remote LSR accepts asymmetric extended Hellos by
   default or by appropriate configuration. With this document, it
   should accept by default in order to then accept or reject the tLDP
   session based on the application information.

4. Interaction of Targeted Application Capabilities and State
   Advertisement Control Capabilities

   As described in this document, the set of Targeted Application
   Elements negotiated between two LDP peers advertising TAC represents
   the willingness of both peers to advertise state information for a
   set of applications. The set of applications negotiated by the TAC
   mechanism is symmetric between the two LDP peers. In the absence of
   further mechanisms, two LDP peers will both advertise state
   information for the same set of applications.

   As described in [I-D.draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ip-pw-capability], State
   Advertisement Control(SAC) TLV can be used by an LDP speaker to
   communicate its interest or disinterest in receiving state
   information from a given peer for a particular application.  Two LDP
   peers can use the SAC mechanism to create asymmetric advertisement of
   state information between the two peers for any particular
   application.



Esale, et al.            Expires March 23, 2015                 [Page 8]


INTERNET DRAFT     <draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp>  September 19, 2014


   For a given tLDP session, the TAC mechanism can be used without the
   SAC mechanism, and the SAC mechanism can be used without the TAC
   mechanism. It is useful to discuss the behavior when TAC and SAC
   mechanisms are used on the same tLDP session.  The TAC mechanism
   takes precedence over the SAC mechanism with respect to enabling
   applications for which state information will be advertised.  For an
   tLDP session using the TAC mechanism, the LDP peers MUST NOT
   advertise state information for an application that has not been
   negotiated in the most recent Targeted Application Elements list
   (referred to as an un-negotiated application). This is true even if
   one of the peers announces its interest in receiving state
   information that corresponds to the un-negotiated application by
   sending a SAC TLV.  In other words, when TAC is being used, SAC
   cannot enable state information advertisement for applications that
   have not been enabled by TAC.

   On the other hand, the SAC mechanism takes precedence over the TAC
   mechanism with respect to disabling state information advertisements.
   If an LDP speaker has announced its disinterest in receiving state
   information for a given application to a given peer using the SAC
   mechanism, its peer MUST NOT send state information for that
   application, even if the two peers have negotiated that the
   corresponding application via the TAC mechanism.

   For the purposes of determining the correspondence between targeted
   applications defined in this document and application state as
   defined in [I-D.draft-ietf-mpls-ldp-ip-pw-capability] an LSR MAY
   using the following mappings:

      LDPv4 Tunneling - IPv4 Prefix-LSPs
      LDPv6 Tunneling - IPv6 Prefix-LSPs
      LDPv4 Remote LFA - IPv4 Prefix-LSPs
      LDPv6 Remote LFA - IPv6 Prefix-LSPs
      LDP FEC 128 Pseudowire - FEC128 P2P-PW
      LDP FEC 129 Pseudowire - FEC129 P2P-PW
      LDPv4 Session Protection - IPv4 Prefix-LSPs
      LDPv6 Session Protection - IPv6 Prefix-LSPs

   An LSR MAY map Targeted Application to LDP capability as follows:

      mLDP Tunneling - P2MP Capability, MP2MP Capability

5. Targeted Application capability in LDP messages

5.1 TAC in LDP Initialization message

  1. The S-bit of the Targeted Application Capability TLV MUST be
     set to 1 to advertise Targeted Application Capability and

INTERNET DRAFT     <draft-esale-mpls-app-aware-tldp>  September 19, 2014


     SHOULD be ignored on the receipt.

  2. The E-bit of the Targeted Application Element MUST be set to 1 to
     enable Targeted application.

  3. An LSR MAY add State Control Capability by mapping Targeted
     Application Element to State Advertisement Control (SAC) Elements
     as defined in Section 4.

  4. The LSR MAY add a different KeepAlive Time [RFC5036] value for
     an automatic tLDP session.

5.2 TAC in LDP Capability message


  The initiating or responding LSR may re-negotiate the TAC after local
  configuration change with the Capability message.

  1. The S-bit of Targeted Application Capability is set to 1 or 0
     to advertise or withdraw it.

  2. After configuration change, If there is no common TAE between
     its new TAE list and peers TAE list, the LSR MUST send a
     'Session Rejected/Targeted Application Capability Mis-Match'
     Notification message and close the session.

  3. If there is a common TAE, a LSR MAY also update SAC Capability
     based on updated TAC as described in section 4 and sends the
     updated TAC and SAC capabilities in a Capability message to
     the peer.

  4. A receiving LSR processes the Capability message with TAC TLV.
     If the S-bit is set to 0, the TAC is disbaled for the session.
     After that, the session may remain in established state or
     torn down based on [RFC5036] rules.

  5. If the S-bit is set to 1, a LSR process a list of TAEs from
     TACs capability data with E-bit set to 1 or 0 to update the
     peers TAE. Also, it udpates the negotiated TAE list over the
     tLDP session.


6. Use cases
6.1 Remote LFA Automatic Targeted session

   An LSR determines that it needs to form an automatic tLDP session to
   remote LSR based on IGP calculation as described in [I-D.draft-ietf-
   rtgwg-remote-lfa] or some other mechanism, which is outside the scope

   of this document. The LSR forms the tLDP adjacency and during session
   setup, constructs an Initialization message with Targeted
   Applications Capability (TAC) with Targeted Application Element (TAE)
   as Remote LFA. The receiver LSR processes the LDP Initialization
   message and verifies whether it is configured to accept a Remote LFA
   tLDP session. If it is, it may further verify that establishing such
   a session does not exceed the configured limit for Remote LFA
   sessions. If all these conditions are met, the receiver LSR may
   respond back with an Initialization message with TAC corresponding to
   Remote LFA, and subsequently the session may be established.

   After the session has been established with TAC capability, the
   sender and receiver LSR distribute IPv4 or IPv6 FEC label bindings
   over the session. Further, the receiver LSR may determine that it
   does not need these FEC label bindings. So it may disable the receipt
   of these FEC label bindings by mapping targeted application element
   to state control capability as described in section 4.

6.2 FEC 129 Auto Discovery Targeted session

   BGP auto discovery or other mechanisms outside the scope of this
   document MAY determine whether an LSR needs to initiate an auto-
   discovery tLDP session with a border LSR. Multiple LSRs MAY try to
   form an auto discovered tLDP session with a border LSR. So, a service
   provider may want to limit the number of auto discovered tLDP
   sessions a border LSR may accept. As described in Section 3, LDP may
   convey targeted applications with TAC TLV to border LSR. A border LSR
   may establish or reject the tLDP session based on local
   administrative policy. Also, as the receiver LSR becomes aware of
   targeted applications, it can also employ an administrative policy
   for security. For instance, it can employ a policy 'accept all auto-
   discovered session from source-list'.

   Moreover, the sender and receiver LSR MUST exchange FEC 129 label
   bindings only over the tLDP session.

6.3 LDP over RSVP and Remote LFA targeted session

   A LSR may want to establish a tLDP session to a remote LSR for LDP
   over RSVP tunneling and Remote LFA applications. The sender LSR may
   add both these applications as a unique Targeted Application Element
   in the Targeted Application Capability data of a TAC TLV. The
   receiver LSR MAY have reached a configured limit for accepting Remote
   LFA automatic tLDP sessions, but it may also be configured to accept
   LDP over RSVP tunneling. In such a case, the tLDP session is formed
   for both LDP over RSVP and Remote LFA applications as both needs same
   FECs - IPv4 and/or IPv6.

   Also, the sender and the receiver LSR MUST distributes IPv4 and or
   IPv6 FEC label bindings only over the tLDP ession.

6.4 mLDP node protection targeted session

   A merge point LSR may determines that it needs to form automatic tLDP
   session to the upstream point of local repair (PLR) LSR for MP2P and
   MP2MP LSP node protection as described in the [I-D.draft-ietf-mpls-
   mldp-node-protection] or other documents, which is outside the scope
   of this document. The MPT LSR may add a new targeted LDP application
   - mLDP node protection, as a unique TAE in the Targeted Application
   Capability Data of a TAC TLV and send it in the Initialization
   message to the PLR. If the PLR is configured for mLDP node protection
   and establishing this session does not exceed the limit of either
   mLDP node protection sessions or automatic tLDP sessions, the PLR may
   decide to accept this session. Further, the PLR responds back with
   the initialazation message with a TAC TLV that has one of the TAEs as
   - mLDP node protection and the session procceds to establishemt as
   per RFC 5036.


7  Security Considerations

   The Capability procedure described in this document will apply and
   does not introduce any change to LDP Security Considerations section
   described in [RFC5036].

8  IANA Considerations

   This document requires the assignment of a new code point for a
   Capability Parameter TLVs from the IANA managed LDP registry "TLV
   Type Name Space", corresponding to the advertisement of the Targeted
   Applications capability. IANA is requested to assign the lowest
   available value after 0x050B.

      Value  Description                       Reference
      -----  --------------------------------  ---------
      TBD1   Targeted Applications capability  [This draft]

   This document requires the assignment of a new code point for a
   status code from the IANA managed registry "STATUS CODE NAME SPACE"
   on the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) Parameters page,
   corresponding to the notification of session Rejected/Targeted
   Application Capability Mis-Match. IANA is requested to assign the
   lowest available value after 0x0000004B.

      Value  Description                       Reference
      -----  --------------------------------  ---------

      TBD2   Session Rejected/Targeted
             Application Capability Mis-Match  [This draft]


   This document also creates a new name space 'the LDP Targeted
   Application Element type' on the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP)
   Parameters page, that is to be managed by IANA. The range is 0-255,
   with the following values requested in this document.

             0x00: Reserved
             0x01: LDPv4 Tunneling
             0x02: LDPv6 Tunneling
             0x03: mLDP Tunneling
             0x04: LDPv4 Remote LFA
             0x05: LDPv6 Remote LFA
             0x06: LDP FEC 128 Pseudowire
             0x07: LDP FEC 129 Pseudowire
             0x08: LDPv4 Session Protection
             0x09: LDPv6 Session Protection
             0x0A: LDP ICCP
             0x0B: LDP P2MP PW
             0x0C: mLDP node protection
             0xFF: Reserved

   The allocation policy for this space is 'Standards Action'.
